Can VA Doctors Write a Nexus Letter?

In the video Leah addresses the challenges veterans face in getting assistance from VA healthcare providers for filling out forms such as DBQs, Nexus letters, and aid and attendance forms. She notes that veterans often encounter reluctance from providers who cite reasons such as conflict of interest or lack of time. Leah aims to empower veterans by discussing the VA's own policy, VHA Directive 1134, which mandates VA healthcare providers to assist in form completion. She highlights key sections of the directive, emphasizing that VA providers are required to provide medical opinions (Nexus statements) and complete DBQs as part of their duties, contrary to the common belief of a conflict of interest. The directive also covers the completion of various forms, including those for benefits claims and handicap parking. Leah urges veterans to approach their providers respectfully and provides guidance on how to request form completion, particularly for mental health DBQs, where she recommends a neutral provider to maintain the integrity of the patient-provider relationship.
